POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
clouded mirror
you live in nightmares
in golden strokes
of hair that tangles
the feathery webs of the woke
inside clouds of the cigarette smoke
tried to find a place to write
in the foggy mirrors of my mind
as each note, every word came forward
in the blink of an eye
my pen dove inside
through the hollows of thought
each stanza
took a lot
out of me, out of a dream
uncanny to find
myself
again
in the mirrors of me
i saw
who was...

lock of you
when the leaves hit my cheek
took me but moments
not to weep
into the wells
inside me
i do love you
as i see inside you
as i feel around you
as rivers can be deep
so am i
in moments , fell to sleep
in lost pathways, i seek
a lock of you , i must keep
took me but moments
not to weep
into the wells
inside me
i do love you
as i see inside you
as i feel around you
as rivers can be deep
so am i
in moments , fell to sleep
in lost pathways, i seek
a lock of you , i must keep

chance
there is a time for escape
in the hoping i intake
in the breath, i awake
in a moment , never late
in each second, i await
a step on thoughtful plake
a jump to my fate
my hand i take
but i love
to wait
in the hoping i intake
in the breath, i awake
in a moment , never late
in each second, i await
a step on thoughtful plake
a jump to my fate
my hand i take
but i love
to wait

to say
there is just something
i needed to say
today
as i was walking around
without a sound
surrounded by everything
surrounded by everyone
though alone inside
the sun
though among
whats said and done

float
we dont have to swim too far
only tread water
under whispering stars
life rolling up
like the billowing cloud
that it was
only tread water
under whispering stars
life rolling up
like the billowing cloud
that it was

following the sun
these are stories in my hands
travelled timeless memoirs, and how they stand
the trials again
suspended in the ageless dream
wind flows right through me
a sunshine inside
when i stay away
from the clouds in me
where to find myself
when i can’t hear a voice
heading to the green grasses
ive come to find you
and take you home
travelled timeless memoirs, and how they stand
the trials again
suspended in the ageless dream
wind flows right through me
a sunshine inside
when i stay away
from the clouds in me
where to find myself
when i can’t hear a voice
heading to the green grasses
ive come to find you
and take you home

lens
we write our dreams
on silver streamline paper
like the cascading lines that made
your eyes
drawn with two hazel pens
forming a lens

mind unwind
there was a life i lived
in a paper swamp
where i wrote all that dropped
where i lay in front of
green moldy thought
bright trees sinking
covered in moss
and drowned in it
all the thoughts that could come through
like i was lost in my dew
deep open leaves
too many thoughts
stretched and taught
unravelling
im leaning
in fogged clouds
paused and dreaming
in a paper swamp
where i wrote all that dropped
where i lay in front of
green moldy thought
bright trees sinking
covered in moss
and drowned in it
all the thoughts that could come through
like i was lost in my dew
deep open leaves
too many thoughts
stretched and taught
unravelling
im leaning
in fogged clouds
paused and dreaming

in bluest night
am i enough for you
and there was nothing
i could do
as masks were tamed
and some blue
came fading through the moon
streamed thinking
things
sinking
stringing
beneath
bringing
lapsed
laughs
of
time
travelled
dance
in doorways of romance
the rapid chance
circling in
circumstance
falling like
creatures
crawling
and calling
moon beds in laughing light
soft sweetness
tender knife
cuts like a...

sweeping
she is an earthling
in golden flower
trapped by the sun
and the little bees they come
shrouded in natural
colors
amongst a breeze
from the other
leaves
meant for keeping
in moments that had me

hiding spot (in pure wings)
With
pure wings
I unmask
my infinities
run away to the forest
to find my
simplicities
I want to find myself
happy
in true light
but I keep on holding
this inner fight
unsure of
who I am to
them
try to get to a place
no one
sees
no one gets
a seat
next to me
alone
is where
I find
acceptance
in this ...

queen harvest
There is a desert
moonlight
In the sights
Of my dream
As blanketed clouds
Purple
ascend
Over me
To be lost
In a scene
Gorgeous
Divinity
Golden
Infinity
approaching
my flowering
mind
I glimpsed
On open doors
For only minutes
As they fell
Into my
Open eyes
moonlight
In the sights
Of my dream
As blanketed clouds
Purple
ascend
Over me
To be lost
In a scene
Gorgeous
Divinity
Golden
Infinity
approaching
my flowering
mind
I glimpsed
On open doors
For only minutes
As they fell
Into my
Open eyes
